The freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1886-18??, 1887-06-15
Vote OF the Churchman,
BY JENNIE SAYRE.

I'm temperance man. will do what can,
will earn estly talk and pray;
| Will labor with might for the cause of
right,
But l cannot vote that way.
With eloquence warm L will urge reform,
Let all the world take note,
Excepting when 1 vote.
1 will labor so that the world may know
Pm Jealous temperance man:
I will talk of laws that will aid the cause,
But cannot vote the plan.
My tongue shall delight to talk of right,
l will speak its praise each day;
will urge it strong on the listening throng,
But 1 cannot vote that way.
A vote for the right is lost from sight,
For the cause is weak to day;
1t might grow strong if helped along,
But 1 cannot vote that way.
With the party strong, though the cause be
wrong,
My vote will still be cast,
Though want and woe in streams may flow,
And whisky rule at last.
The widows groan and the orphans moan
Shall not affect my will;
pity them though, and tell them so,
But vote for whisky still.
The freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1886-18??, 1887-06-15

We present our readers, in this
issue, with tbs Presidents Annual
Address before the State W. c. T..
U. Convention. Of course it is not
for the FREEMAN to crltlclse
or comment, but it is quite
proper to ask all Temper
ance readers who are interested In
Tenn perance work and workers, to
read the address carefully and note
the many practical suggestions, in
reference especially to organiza-
ton and Amendment Campaign
work. It is already quite evident
that if the Amendment is carried
in West Virginia, a great share OF
the requisite work must be done
by the women.
And while Christian men pray
that the women may have needed
grace and strength for the work,
will they not also see to it that
they have the money, absolutely
necessary to carry it forward?

though we may admire the shrewd-

you add to man but what you
develop in him which makes him

who are able to think and act.
It demands not accomplishments
but efficiency, not paint but polish.

THE FEVER RISING.
Prohibition Enthusiasm in the
International Sunday School
Convention.
Ed. FREEMAN:

Ed. FREEMAN
One thing especially noticeable
IN the recent international Sun
Jay School Conven ton at Chicago,
was the Prohibition sentiment
which SO frequently manifested
itself. Any reference to the Prohioi-
ton of the Liquor Traffic would
occasion al ousburst of hearty ap-
plause. It was prohibition Con-
vention. While the thousand del
egates present may have held, and
no doubt die hold different political
views, they were unit in declar-
ing that "The saloon must CO." But
no one need be surprised that such
Convention should take such
decided stand in favor Of prohibi-
ton. The men and women who
com posed it could not consistently
take any other position. Such
body Of Sunday School workers de.
claring against prohibition, would
be enough to make devils laugh.
Gen'l Clinton B. Fisk OF N. j., was
the central figure of the Conven-
tion. He is a grand Christian man.
His speeches were magnificent. For
logic, pathos and true elcquence l
never heard him excelled. He cap
sured the thousands who heard
him. They couldn't help them
selves. Everybody wanted to shake
hands with him, and did, judging
from the way they gathered around
him.
The old veteran Temperance
worker Of N. Y. City, Horace Wat
ers, was also present running over
with enthusiasm for Prohibition.
He and his tracts we're briskly cir
culating all the time. God bless
such men. w. M. W.

AN AMENDMENT STRAW.
Prohibition Carries Is to 4.

AS the delegates were returning
on the Ohio River Railroad, from
the State s. S. Convention at Raw
enswood, on Thursday last. Gen.
Harris and Rev. J. s. Pomeroy, were
in conversation in reference to the
pending Prohibition Amendment,
A portly gentleman, whom the.
took to be an anti, judging from his
appearance, seemed to be taking
much interest in their talk and
presently proposed that a train
vote be taken on the Amendment
They readily seconded the mo-
ton" ballots were distributed, and
an ''honest count" secured, with the
surprising result, to the aforesaid
portly gentleman, of IS to 4 for tbs
Amendment.
And what was more remarkable
still, of the 4 ants only one was 8
West Virginian.
After the vote the portly gentle
man lost his interest in the CONVEX
sation.
